Charles Finney delivers a powerful sermon on the dire consequences of hardening one's heart against God's reproof. He emphasizes that God reproves sinners through His Word, providence, and Spirit, aiming to lead them to repentance and salvation. Finney warns that those who repeatedly resist these reproofs will face sudden destruction without remedy, highlighting the urgency of heeding God's warnings. The sermon serves as a solemn reminder of the dangers of spiritual insensitivity and the importance of responding to divine correction before it is too late.

David Wilkerson emphasizes the disconnect between hearing God's Word and obeying it, using the example of the Israelites who enjoyed Ezekiel's preaching but failed to act on it. He highlights the danger of hardening one's heart after hearing the truth, as seen in Hebrews and Isaiah, where God warns against the consequences of rebellion and complacency. Wilkerson calls for a full surrender to God, urging believers to move beyond mere acknowledgment of His Word to genuine obedience and transformation. He reflects on the joy of those who truly embrace God's truth and allow it to guide their lives.
